How to make it keto
Crucially, ask for no flour or cornstarch to thicken the sauce. Confirm that the sauce is dairy-based cream and not a starchy béchamel. Request no starchy accompaniments.
Watch out for
Flour or cornstarch used as a thickening agent in the white sauce, hidden sugars in pre-made sauce bases, excessive onions or bell peppers in the sauce.
